The Struggles Of You And I

"I’m not ready." I keep pacing the end of my bed, saying the same thing over and over, hoping that maybe, just maybe, it will stop this all from happening.
In one day I will turn eighteen, in one day I will be marked and eventually mated. In one day my life will no longer belong to me.

My name is Elise Casten, and my life might be boring but at least it’s mine, well, for now that is. I live in the Castaway pack - and no, we aren’t all castaways, that’s just the name of our territory. Unfortunate, I know. We have traditions in this pack, and I don’t always agree with some of them, however there is a specific one that I am hating at this moment. Every time a she wolf turns 18, she is to be sent into the woods to find her mate. As the moon rises, male wolves line up side by side and chase you through the woods. The goal is that your mate will be the first one to smell your scent, so he will find you first and mark you. However, life doesn't always fall into place so easily.

These are the struggles of you & I.
